People penciled Lindberg into the lineup before this season even started, that worked out well.

If Richards gets bought out, I'd have to imagine some of the freed up cap space would go towards a top 6 center. Brassard is too inconsistent and I doubt that Lindberg or Miller would be able to step into that role and produce immediately.

I wouldn't mind him at a reasonable cap hit/term. He could probably replace Richards production without worrying about recapture haunting us down the road.
For Lindberg to look dominant he needs to fill out. North American game more about strength. Needs to bulk up 10-15 pounds. Staal bulked up 22 pounds one of his first years here. Night and day difference. Lindberg only still 22.

I disagree, I say he gets Hagelins.
2 years at $2.5 mill per. He hasn't proven as much as Stepan did.
That'd be ideal. His potential offensively is certainly higher than Hagelins... Stepan didn't prove much before last year either. Kreider is quickly becoming one of our top forwards. Hagelin provided an energy spark, Kreider has been providing spark through production. Slightly different.
Any interest in something like Gunnarsson+Kulemin+ for Girardi? If Gunnarsson plays the right side.

Girardi is a top pairing D-man. He brings at least a #1 and a quality prospect. Look at what Beauchemin returned.

**** no.
If Toronto wants Girardi so bad they need to cough up Franson, Gardiner, or a good forward. Not hot garbage like Kulemin.
Kulemin is supposed to be a good defensive forward, but the guy had his 3rd shot on net in like his 8th game. He has fewer than shot per game now.
In his own end he's been very good, IMO, but he does look a bit slow in the offensive zone. I'm chalking it up to the smaller ice. I think he and McIlrath will be staples in the lineup next year.
